TEACHERS DEPARTM X NT.
ARTHUR KIBLyR, EDITOR.
Too bad, TOO True.

l have Il thought or two on the fiIan-
cial side Of the common school question.
The first is in the line Of an increase
In the teachers salary. 1t is this let
the public school law be so altered as to
require the trustees Of any school to
raise, In caslr, or secure with valid paper
the payment of rs many dollars on their
part as the public fund amounts to, and
deposit the same with the county treas
urcr, in order that the teacher may lie
paid as soon as the claims are approved
Or, in other worls, if hrst-grade
teacher receives $25.00 from the public
per month, require the trustees of the
school in which he teaches to deposit
cash, or an equivalent, with the treas
urcr on. opening Of the public school
term for the same amount for rs many
months as the public schools run, in or
benefit Of the public fluid | am too ig-
norant of the facts connected with the
public school machinery 10 say whether
the above is practicable or not, but it is
q thought.
1t strikes me that the noble State
which we delight to serve and call or
own ought not to have the grave charge
of robbing brought against her, or
against any system she has established,
'bHt there is one thing, to put it in its
mildcst form, that is n swindlc. 1t is in
the management Of the school funds
don't charge any officer in particular,
or.any set of officers in general. l am
not sufficiently informed to say Just
where the fault lies, but there is fault
somewhere. We arc paid certain sum,
that is, we get claims which arc due rs
soon as they are approved, and yet wc
can collect no money till twelve months
later. In other words, we are forced 10
work for the mercst pittance, and arc
then lawfully swindlcd out of large
per cent: OF the already "threadbarc
mite" This matter can be remcdied
Some townships in this county have
remcdied it already. Why not all do
likewise? Why doesn't tie State see
that the evil is remedied one way or an
other? 1t strikes me as being bad policy
to employ builders upon the grand
structure of South Carolina's future and
compel them to stand on the ground to
build for the want of scalfOlding mate.
rial.
Connected with the above thoughts is
the vital thought In public schools. Low
salary and q want of prompt payment
have bad effect upon tic schools. Nc
teacher, however gifted, can properly
discharge his duties when his salary
does not justify the amount of worl,
and responsibility required. Teachers
of merit cannot be securcd-thcre is
nothing to allure them from the easier
and more profitable walks of life. But
IL, through love for mankind, or for the
profession, or any other cause they en-
gage in teaching, thcX.sa.gsds, restricted Il,
their work by the AAlary and the
want OF prompt payn, ss II.

"NEARLY CRAZED

with pain" is the sad cry of many victim
of rheumatism or neuralgia, and frequently
other diseases, such as kidney and liver
complaints, are directly traceable to rheu-
matism or neuralgia. These diseases, for
some unexplainable reason, are rapidly in
creasing, and in many instances are the
direct cause of much sickness which so
hides Its real origin as to be mistaken for
other diseases. In curing rheumatism, neu-
ralgia, sick headache, and in many cases of
kidney and liver troubles Athlophoros has
wrought wonders. Those who have used
it are best qualified to speak of its merit.
Mrs. G. ". Brown, No. 143 Sixth St.,
Milwaukee, Wis, says: "My daughter
was first taken with what seemed to be
nothing but ordinary stiff neck. l treated
her with the usual remedies in such cases,
but the disease seemed to spread very
quickly over the whole body, giving her
the most excruciating pains, which seemed
almost beyond endurance even for short
time, causing her to scream violently. |
at once sent for physician, aud he pro-
nounced it a very bad form of infamma-
tory rheumatism; he endeavored to give
her relief from this terrible agony but
could not. The disease was steadily grow
ing worse, she began to feel it around the
heart, this being the vital part, and fear
ing the child would die before we could
get her some relief, | said, doctor, | am
not satisfied, this child must have relief at
once or she will die, she cannot stand this
torture much longer. ] at once sent for
bottle of Athlophoros and to my utter sur
prise after giving her eight teaspoonfuls
she had relief, and in two days time she
was up and around and did not suffer a
pain. All | used was one bottle. 1t saved
my child's life"

FLOATING VILLAGES.

Villas on the Thames. especially in
the pleasant, picturesque stretches be-
tween Hampton court and Windsor
command such fabulous prices during
the summer months that none but mil
honaires can indulge in the luxury.
Necessity is the mother of invention"
and an ingenious mind has initiated a
movement that Will make Of the upper
Thames series of floating villages.
This new fad is a houseboat, built on
almost fiat bottom, thus allowing it
to be mOored at any sylvan spot close
under the outrageous trees that line
the banks. The boat has its saloon.
dining, and sleeping rooms. and is
generally fitted up 10y the ladies with
exquisite taste and comfort
There is a great luxury in a quiet life
on these handsomely-appointed craft,
and their numbers increased so rapid
ly last year that the tradesmen sent
round small steamboats, taking orders
and delivering the provisions. The
owners OF the tine'yillas are naturally
indignant at the constant inrOads on
their privacy, and the question as to
the right of mooring such boats in
close proximity to the grounds of a
park Is to be tested in the law courts.
These crafts We're moved to different
parts of the river by means Of tugs,
but recently a stern-wheel velocipede
has been tested as a motive power.
The paddles, two feet in diameter. are
connected with a gut-band to the driv-
ing-wheel, which is twenty six inches in
diameter and over seventy pounds in
weight Ordinary bicycle handles,
which are connected with the rudder,
saddle, cranks, and treadles are used
The boat is thirty feet long and seven
feet beam, and was propelled two
miles and half, between Mari W and
Bourne End, in forty minutes, which
is good time. 1t caused great deal
